Thank you to everyone who joined us in Macau and virtually for our 2018 World Convention! It was an amazing event and we have an exciting announcement we want to ensure is shared broadly.

We are proud to let you know that Giles Whiting will be joining us as our new CEO! In this role, Giles will coordinate across all of products and businesses and oversee the unified strategy and execution of FutureNet.

At the same time, we will also step up our commitment to FutureNet and to each of you, taking the roles of Co-Chairman of the Board focused on supporting Giles and our businesses, strengthening key business relationships, external marketing, and ultimately supporting our continued growth.

As we look ahead we see even more possible in terms of the growth and scope of our businesses, and the good that we can do. We know we have the potential to transform industries and change lives on a massive scale. We also know that extraordinary results are driven by extraordinary people, like each of you! And for that reason, we feel we owe it to you and to our community to bring this caliber of a leader into FutureNet so that we will realize our full potential!

Giles is an absolute rockstar and most importantly an amazing leader and person. He has a proven history of growing highly complex, global companies. A Harvard graduate and former physicist for NASA and the U.S. Air Force, Giles began his business career with McKinsey & Company in New York. He has held a number of executive positions for global technology companies serving at various times as Chief of Staff, General Manager, COO, and CEO.

He loves sports and has completed several Ironmans and dozens of marathons including one in Antarctica! He brings with him his wonderful wife, Chelsea. Both love traveling the world, connecting with new people, building new relationships, and are very excited to be on board!

Yesterday Giles shared his initial strategy and vision for our community – Unlimited Life, Unlimited Good! “Our business strategy is simple and focused on growth. We achieve it by developing and making available more and more products that you are able to take to the market. More, high-value, high-demand products that will drive network expansion, customer growth, and ultimately more value for everyone. We’re at an inflection point – just the beginning of what’s going to be an exponential unlocking of value for everyone in this community.”

We are very excited to have Giles on board and hope you will join us in welcoming him! We look forward to continued success and growth together!
